Another month, another deep dive into the entrepreneurial journey for founders in the Innovation Catalyst Grant (ICG) and Aerospace Accelerator Program (AAP) at Innovate Calgary. A big thank you to Matt Wilson from Allied Venture Partners for a great session on pitch training, and to Brad Andrews and Maleeka Malik from the UCeed team for sharing their insights on investment readiness. 👏 And on a separate but exciting note, congratulations to Sabrina Scott and the entire CURA team on their recent fundraising round! Great to see the continued progress from our #founders. Lots of learning, lots of progress, and plenty more ahead! University of Calgary Alberta Technology and Innovation

We recently closed our seed round and hit $3.5M in funding to solve the loneliness epidemic. When I started Clockout, I kept coming back to one question: How is it that we’re more digitally connected than ever, yet it’s become so difficult to meet people in real life? LinkedIn made it easy to build a professional network online. But somewhere along the way, professionals lost the ability to build one offline. That’s the problem we’re solving at Clockout. Since launching, we’ve grown to: ~700,000+ downloads ~$2M in revenue - 10,000 professional communities We’re building a world where meeting new people, finding your community, and building meaningful professional relationships doesn’t have to be so difficult. Huge thank you to our investors, team, and the hundreds of thousands of people who’ve believed in this vision. And thank you to Joshua Hong and Fortune for sharing our story!
